| Additional information |
Werner of Falkenstein held the archbishopric of Trier through one of the Rhineland's more turbulent stretches of electoral politics, and his goldgulden coinage reflects the broader Rhenish monetary agreements that bound Trier, Mainz, Cologne, and the Count Palatine to standardized gold weights from the mid-fourteenth century onward. The Rhenish gulden convention gave these ecclesiastical electors unusual monetary coherence, but individual archbishops still varied output significantly depending on toll revenues from the Rhine.
Noss Tr#322 places this emission within a five-year window corresponding to Werner's later tenure before his death in 1418.
